Update from 21 June 2017

Message from Assistant Chief Constable Nelson Telfer- Police Scotland

"Following the
incident of Monday 19 June 2017 in Finsbury Park, London, I assure you that
Police Scotland remains united with all communities. Obviously this comes soon
after the attacks in London and Manchester as well as other attacks abroad. Our
thoughts are with everyone who has been affected.

"While we understand
that the public will clearly be appalled by these events, I would urge each and
every member of our communities to remain united against extremism and hate.

"Police Scotland will
not tolerate any attempts to target any community by any misguided individual
or group and will work with all of our partners to resolve any issues and
address concerns. Should anyone become a victim of, or witness to, hate crime,
they should contact the police and report the incident.

"Please be assured that
Police Scotland continues to work with partners at home and abroad to counter
the threat from terrorism and ensure the safety and wellbeing of all our communities.

"Please be vigilant
and if you suspect something is wrong then report it to the police. If you have
any concerns or information about suspicious activity please contact the Police
on 101, the UK Anti-Terrorism Hotline on 0800 789 321, Crimestoppers on 0800
555 111, or in an emergency dial 999.

"Police Scotland
continues to dynamically review all safety and security plans and operations.
An element of this includes ensuring our armed policing and specialist
resources are appropriately deployed.

"The UK threat level
remains at Severe. We have no specific information that Scotland is at risk of
attack and I would ask you to go about your business as normal, remaining alert
but not alarmed. The UK Government has produced guidance which can be accessed
via the following links: ‘Places
of Worship Guidance’‘Crowded
Places Booklet’. These provide sensible precautionary advice and can be
distributed throughout your communities.

"Thank you for your
continued support in keeping our communities safe."
